    One about to kick the top off Kickstarter

    I Don't think you looked at it in it's entirety. In general concept it is no different then any other "solar generator" in that you can charge the batteries in many different ways. Solar, wall, generator or you car. The thing that I found most appealing is that it has a larger inverter then...

    One about to kick the top off Kickstarter

    Why don't you do one of the all in one MPP units. I am considering putting that next to my breaker box and wiring it into another breaker box where I move certain circuits in my house and having my own hybrid system. It will charge from solar and/or the grid to keep battery bank up as well as...

    Best voltage ranges for Lead Acid

    OH I see no I want to put some panels on the roof. Have this guy coming and going to play with it on the victron MPPT which has already arrived. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HOU6A12/?coliid=I2N2K89HVR9UZE&colid=1E0FHSO4LAHSZ&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it so if I put it on the roof it should have...

    Lots of questions about offgrid solar for cabin :)

    for the inverter/MPPT charger you might consider something like this. My opinion only not always the best option. https://www.amazon.com/MPP-SOLAR-5000w-Inverter-Charger/dp/B07R18ZTKC/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=mpp+solar&qid=1569253865&s=electronics&sr=1-1-catcorr It will take all your solar and...

    Please help me design a reasonable setup for my tiny house

    IMO I think you would be better to just forgo all the nonsense and just get one of these. https://www.ebay.com/itm/5000w-48vdc-120v-208V-240V-Split-phase-Solar-inverter-80A-Dual-MPPT-charger-/133030726842?&_trksid=p2056016.m2516.l5255 It will tie into the grid... charge the batteries from the...

    Best voltage ranges for Lead Acid

    Can't really do that when your camping and there is no power to connect too. That is why I bought the Victron MPPT 75/15 like I said. But I am conserned on the low side at night when there is no sun.

    Best voltage ranges for Lead Acid

    I think I am going to leave it at default ... 10.5 cut off and 12 turn back on and see what happens... yea I get you .. he has a 5th wheel and most of the time it is plugged into shore power but I suspect the problem is in the inverter that powers the residential refrigerator. Even when it is...

    Best voltage ranges for Lead Acid

    Found this chart for deep cycle lead acid.... seems like I want it to be higher I suppose. But then I found another suggesting that 11.5 is 10% ... geeze ..

    Best voltage ranges for Lead Acid

    See I installed a manual disconnect because he keeps leaving his camper for a few days and the batteries will be discharged to like 8 volts. I have yet to find the phantom load that is taking them that low. He keeps "forgetting" to turn that dial. So this will cut off the batteries before...

    Best voltage ranges for Lead Acid

    So I bought the Victron MPPT 75/15 and a BP 12/24 low voltage disconnect for my Father-in-laws camper I want to know the best settings to keep his Lead acid batteries working the best. So I am thinking the undervoltage cut off on the auto disconnect should be 10.5 V to keep them working best...
